Horse Number: 5
Horse Name: HUNTERS GAL
Odds: 4-1
Race 1 Comments: MAJESTIC DEO has finished with sharp trot in all recent tries. 4-year-old has been much improved since arriving in The Catskills and may roll by short field for hot barn. VANISHING ACT had brutal trip last time and understandably tired. Drops and is very much the one to beat.
